I help companies thrive.
I work with startups (hacking, hustling, growing, making sh#t happen), in corporations (helping them to be more startup-like), or connecting startups to big companies and investors (to see great people and ideas succeed).
“... enthusiasm of a labrador puppy and professionalism of a president. ”
While my speciality is growth & marketing, my passion is building or advising great teams.
I created one of the UK’s first web agencies, developed new products with Twitter (Mark was a critical part of the team. Smart, funny & easy to work with." - Tony Wang, Twitter UK MD), built the first crowdsourced (and fastest-selling) whisky, founded a cycle charity that raised over $1,000,000, and created Shaken, the world's first direct-to-consumer cocktail service.
I have a deep experience of marketing consulting in both b2c and b2b, investment preparation, innovation, and new product development - plus a good all round knowledge of technology.
I have also spoken at numerous events in Europe, US and Africa, and written for various publications.
Some companies I’ve helped
BSkyB, Capco, Jimmy Choo, Pernod Ricard, Twitter, and many startups.

But despite the go getting, he has a great sense of humanity and has built superb relationships with our partners and customers.”
